Sorry for the late answer, was on vacation until yesterday... Ent COBOL V4.1 code can run on z/OS R7 and above, so as long as you have the PTFs required for COBOL V4.1 on the R9 system, and any PTFs needed for XMLSS, you should be OK. (Note: the required LE updates for 4.1 are in the base for z/OS R10) We have discovered that many customers install the LE PTFs required for new compilers in only one system, instead of on all systems where COBOL programs might run. Since the compiler is separate frmo the run-time library, all new releases of COBOL will require PTFs for LE, and on all systems where COBOL would run. (Same for PL/I) If all of your sustems have the PTFs you are good to go!
